Vanunu is the former nuclear technician who is in custody for giving a British newspaper information about Israel's alleged nuclear weapons capabilities. His lawyer, Amnon Zichroni, said that he might press charges against the Israel Broadcast Authority. A television reporter said he found the diary in a suit- case in a building where Vanunu once lived. It covered the years from 1982-85 and revealed the writer's attitudes toward women, family, philos- ophy, religion and finances.

Ephraim Sneh, the civilian administrator of the West Bank, believes that most of the 800,000 Palestinians in Judaea and Samaria are mov- ing away from the Palestine Liberation Organization to a more "realistic" position. "I believe the majority of Palestinians understand that Israel is a fact" and "they Sneh is in the United States as part of a program of the Anti-Defamation League of B'nai B'rith to enhance the dialogue between Israelis and Americans. view last Monday. "They understand the slo- gans of the PLO to destroy the 'Jewish State are irrele- vant and far from reality." Sneh admits that the "sym- pathy of the Palestinians is still with the PLO." But he said there is a growing "disil- lusionment" with PLO ter- rorist activities which they see offer no hope for a solu- tion of the Palestinian prob- lem. "Most of the Palestinian residents of the West Bank re- ject terrorism," he maintained. He said there are less riots, demonstrations and strikes on the West Bank and ter- rorist incidents have decreased. Sneh conceded that the Palestinian youth are more likely to be radical and mili- tant as elsewhere in the world. "It changes with age," he added. Sneh has headed the civil administration of the West Bank since July, 1985. He is in charge of government for the area, except for security which is under the military administration. The civilian administration was created in 1981, but like the military ad- ministration, is under the Ministry of Defense.

The Broadcast Author- ity was accused of violating a 1981 law for protection of privacy. But the Authority main- tained that Vanunu stands accused of serious offenses against the State and has lost his right to privacy. Uri Porat, Director General of the Broadcast Authority, said pains were taken not to publicize anything about Vanunu that is not already known and to resist "the temptation to score a great many journalistic scoops which were contained in the diary." The reporter who obtained it claimed a relative of Vanunu authorized its publication. Zichroni, meanwhile, is on A physician, most of his career has been with the Israel Defense Force's medi- cal corps. He headed the medical team participating in the Israeli rescue mission at Entebbe, Uganda in 1976. While he is in effect in charge of the civilian govern- ment of the West Bank, Sneh stressed that it is Israel's policy "not to interfere with the day-to-day lives of the West Bankers." He noted that in the civil administration 13,000 of its employees are local Arabs and only 300 are Israelis.
